And Then There were Four - Perry Suspends His Campaign

It was just a matter of time.  Rick Perry has decided to end his campaign for president.  He has thrown his support behind Newt.  


Perry was never able to rebound from his poor debate performances.  My own opinion had been it made no difference what type of president he would be if he were unable to beat Obama.  If he had another Oops moment in a nationally televised one on one debate with Obama, we would be guaranteed another four years of  The One.  


If people are truly worried about a Romney candidacy, this needed to be done to stop splitting the Anyone But Romney Vote.  Now, we just need to get Santorum to do the same.  Get this race to Ron Paul, Romney, and Newt and see who comes out on top.

  1. Just out of curiosity, why do you think Santorum needs to drop out instead of Newt? Hasn't Rick outperformed the former Speaker in both Iowa and New Hampshire?

  2. Santorum can't win. It is that simple. He is too far to the right on social issues. He will scare people in the middle. You can't win without them.
